timsrs Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 Hi I am looking at painting my car in a mexico colour with decals, and the colour i am quite keen on is the red. My car is a 1971 so would like to know the colours of mexico cars at that age along with decals.... Also the correct name for the colour also PICS would be good also. Thanks
Admin Vista Posted March 4, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 4, 2012 A 71 Mexico would have been sunset red, colour code J on the vin plate (1970 - 1972). Superseded in 1972 by Sebring red. Stripes or pinstripe would have been white
timsrs Posted March 4, 2012 Author Report Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks for that..... What other colour did a 1971 mex come in with decal colour ??? Cheers
Admin Vista Posted March 4, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 4, 2012 Ermine white with red decals or pinstripe Maize yellow with Black decals or pinstripe Le Mans/Lime Green with Black decals or pinstripe Electric/Monza Blue with White decals or pinstripe Tawney Brown metallic with Gold pinstripe Black with Gold pinstripe
timsrs Posted March 4, 2012 Author Report Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks Just what i was after... My car is Ermine at the moment, but wanting to change colour. The Blue sounds interesting and not heard of could be different. Any pictures Thanks

Admin Vista Posted March 5, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 5, 2012 I like the sound of the Tawny brown mex, never seen one, nor the black with gold stripes The RS was never available in black with the full RS broad stripe, only a pinstripe. However I also think it would have been a good colour combination This is tawny brown (albeit not a Mexico) http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/3658494.htm As is this
